Congrats to Quick, Brown & Kopitar, but stop ****ing winning. Happiest for Brown. Dude has been a warrior.

Oilers on their way to yet another top 10 pick while wasting a prime year of McDavid is pretty impressive

 

[Bandit]

Seriously though, how could the oilers challenge when they already used their time out?

 

[kingsfan28]

Suck it Oilers!

4-0 shutout.

 

[Legionnaire]

Good win. That was the Kings team that we were expecting this season.

I don't get it either. That's something I'd like the NHL to come out and explain.

Foxy says it could've been reviewed automatically by Toronto if it was within 1 minute, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't.

Right. Wasn’t last minute so what in the actual f***?

 

[kingsfan28]

How can they challenge? They used their timeout?

Yeah, how were able to challenge without a timeout?

Clock stopped at 1:08. That's not under a min. Then they reset it to 1:16.

I'd like this post but apparently I lost the privilege after engaging in a debate intoxicated. Grats on the W! Cheers

So much for Lose for Hughes we know who's going to win the lottery. Screw the Oilers.

interesting, the rulebook language this year changed in a way i didn't expect re: the offsides challenge

don't need the timeout for offsides, you only need it for goalie interference specifically

i knew they added the penalty for a failed offsides challenge but didn't realize they removed the timeout requirement at the same time

Thanks I was thinking that may be the case but I couldn’t find it.

Still a dick move by Hitch anyways. I guess it was a moral victory for them.

Ehh it's a way to lose the players if you're already on the way there. You want to have your players back. I'm sure Talbot cares about his already bad numbers.

I tend to agree. Young team. With that he kind of said we don't quit. That's important for team culture.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Sorry to play devils advocate, but was that The Kings actually playing good or the Oilers looking like absolute shit?

(For starters, Koskinen had some horrific reads on those 3 goals in the 1st. On Carter's wrister he didn't even come out of the net while leaving half the net exposed for Carter.)

 

[KingsFan7824]

So happy that Dean did not re sign Lucic. Dodged a bullet there .

Probably should be more along the lines of happy Lucic chose to go to Edmonton.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

One silver lining about the Kings being awful is that every win leads to like 10k people and an entire hockey organization questioning their existence.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Oilers are bad - something is going to happen soon. Lucic has 1 goal.

-Hall for Larsson
-16th and 33rd picks for Reinhardt (Isles selected Barzal with the 16th pick and packaged the 33rd with another pick to trade up to the 28th pick to select Beauvillier.
-Eberle for Strome (when then was traded for Spooner)
-Lucic for 7 years

That was a fun one.
